Self-Love
Your star doesn’t match the constellation in the sky
“Keep letting him do the talkin’. See where that gets ya. Back to where ya started: where everyone believes ya.” But they shouldn’t. Nah, they should be careful. They can’t predict the next move I’ll make.

It started with the seam, before it moved to the collar, and before I knew it, my shirt was on fire. Sometimes it takes a perspective from the bottom of the mountain to realize how tall you were when you stood at the top. I can almost feel the passport in my hand, clutched tightly. … Read more
As I Go Along
Everyone seems to be waiting for the moment in which I miss the step and fall by the wayside. But they don’t seem to understand that I never fall, I never crumble, and I make the rules. That was a cold walk home, at least it didn’t last very long. Time is just waiting for … Read more

Don’t justify.
Don’t justify yourself for anyone because they just won’t understand. Never explain or give reason. You are who you are because that’s who you are. And it doesn’t matter how you got there or why, Because you’re already there and that’s not changing. So, the people that love you will accept what you give them. … Read more
